Chapter 297: Thief Cat ...... Thief wolf?
"Cheruth-chan~"
"Ahh
As soon as she entered the passage, Charnov happily hugged Cheruth from the side, and the wolf girl tried hard to break out of the soft heart of the blonde girl who was quite well developed as a fifteen-year-old girl, but was hugged by a grinning Elena from the other side.
"Don't be shy, Cheruth, this time we really rely on you to win~ Say, what reward do you want, the seniors will satisfy you~"
"Then please first show what a second-grade sister should look like and let go of the poor first-grade girl who is caught in the middle by you!"
Behind them, Langton and Little Wolf also looked at the three girls who walked in front of them with excited and relaxed smiles, and in front of them, Robert crossed his hands behind his head and held the back of his head as he walked, as he seemed to be a little disappreciative of the girls' frolic, but if you look closely, you will find that the corners of the bear child's mouth are slightly grinning, obviously in a pretty good mood, and although he looks ahead, those eyes also glance at the wolf girl who is being loved by the two senior sisters β in front of the side from time to timeγ
No one said it explicitly, but everyone knew that in this water elemental competition, they didn't just get a victory.
To tell the truth, as the freshman team representing Lorris National College in this year's four-house competition, including Robert, the seemingly grinister bear child, these five people other than Cheruth are full of pressure in their hearts.
Little Wolf is an international student from the eastern part of the mainland, and in the outside public opinion before the official start of the competition, although there is an obvious target of Cheruth, who is not even a human being, it has attracted most of the rhetoric and firepower against the selection of non-domestic students to become the representatives of the Four Houses Competition, but this does not mean that Little Wolf has no pressure at all.
After all, there are also several seniors in the second year of the magic department who are in the wind system and his peers, but because of his dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, he has a stronger ability to adapt to various situations at any time, and he is proficient in some unique spell-casting techniques in the east of the mainland, which made him finally selected as a contestant. So, while Wolf didn't get as much negative attention from people outside the academy who didn't know as much as Chyruth, it was especially among the first and second year students in the academy. Although most people don't slander anything behind their backs, they still don't have the same belief and recognition as the other elemental bearers of Little Wolf, the wind elemental bearer selected from the first grade.
As for the four of Langton, most of the pressure they received came from their seniors.
Before the four-academy competition began, the national team of Lloris National College this year had almost shown an unstoppable momentum. Sekaria, who has an amazing talent in spell-casting skills and magic control that even the Great Sage admits, Getajielia, who reached the five-star level at the age of 19, and even Xia Li, a new silver-level technician, was dug up.
And in comparison. The members of the main competition teams of the other three academies are undoubtedly much darker, although Rafael, who is also a five-star genius girl, has added some points to Solan's team, but Rafael's best thing is to purify seals and assist buffs of light magic, unless the topic of the four-house competition is to remove curses or deal with undead creatures, Rafael can only play a super support role in the game more often.
The main team of the same college is so strong, and it is at the home of Loris, as the juniors of the seniors, and the freshman team that also represents the Loris College, the pressure that Langton and others are forced to bear is naturally self-evident. However, the reality is clearly different from what they expected. In addition to the Meteor Castle Academy, which has always been weak in recent years, both the Digakar Academy and the Solan Bright Academy each have a leading wizard, and even the strength of the ordinary team members is equal to them, so it is obviously difficult for them to win these two teams.
Although there is also a suspicious strange ...... in his own team cough cough suspected of being a wizard of the Celeste children's shoes, but the problem is that they only know that this wolf girl is very powerful, but they don't know what kind of strength she has. Although after Robert's failure to challenge Rayrk, in order to boost everyone's morale, the wolf girl also let go of high-level magic in front of them, but after all, it was only a demonstration spell, and the gold content was not too high, and even if the wolf girl's magic strength was not weak, but she was the magician after all, once the time came for Chelus to fulfill the role obligations of the magician in the game, they pure elemental magicians still didn't have much chance of winning in the face of Relke and Ai of the Digakar Academy.
With such thoughts and mindsets. Although the five people couldn't see it on the surface before the game, they had a considerable burden in their hearts.
At the very beginning of the game. Due to the cover of the wall of water in the game, everyone didn't know the specific situation of the other teammates and opponents, and could only listen to the host report on the live report of Rayke's heroic posture all the way, and the five people were honestly in their respective passages, and they all lost their square inches, and they couldn't play at a normal level at all, and the comprehensive progress of the five of them was not even as good as Meteor Castle Academy in terms of the initial situation of the game.
And it was in this situation that they heard the news from the host in their respective passages, "The gods are on the Upper Cheruth Contestant I don't know when I have broken through the fourth level!".
The cheers of the audience were not deceiving, although they couldn't see the situation on Cheruth's side due to the obscuration of the water elemental array. But the five of them perked up almost at the same time.
ββSure enough, that strange flower on our team is a real overlord flower!
The first player to complete the breakthrough of the five levels, it is said that even the teachers of the magic guidance department who watched the battle were greatly amazed by the literary strength of the magic guide runes, and without any obstacles, they cracked the hidden information hints in the game, and wisely took the lead in bringing out their teammates with the strongest ability to break through the level, Shanoff and Robert, from their respective passages to help the remaining three break through the level...... Not only did Chelus show the strength of a wizard genius with no precedent, but even the wolf girl's performance made it obvious to everyone that she was completely in control of the rhythm and key points of the match. Almost single-handedly, he pulled the Loris National Academy team, which had a bad start, directly to the first place.
In the end, when standing in the position of the first team with Cheruth and bathing in the cheers of the audience, while listening to the host announce that "the freshmen team of the Loris National College took the lead in scoring four points for the total score of the college!", Langton and the others felt a kind of relief that they could not imagine before the game, in addition to the excitement of winning.
It turns out that the two wizards who are said not to lose to Her Royal Highness Sekaria in the previous tournament are not invincible. It turns out that they can also get the proud results of not losing to the seniors of the main team, and it turns out that they also have a veritable little genius in their team!
"But Cheruth, are you really a first-year student in the Department of Magic?"
Elena only cooperated with Charnov to play tricks on Cheruth at first, and soon she let go of the wolf girl, and asked with curiosity and admiration as she walked.
"Although I didn't take a formal course in magic rune literature, I was self-taught and had a trainee magic technician. Not to mention anything else, when you took me to break through the third level, you used the magic rune sequence to completely reverse the function of the water elemental supply magic array, even some third-year students of the magic guide department may not be able to write such exquisite rune coding instructions. β
Cheruth, who was still halfway around her body by Charnove, was still trying to break away from the blond girl's arm, and when she heard Elena's question, Cheruth moved her ears to tell the answer that had been prepared for a long time.
"I'm really just a first-year student, but someone taught me something about magic engineering before I entered the school. β
"Yes......"
Elena was a little skeptical, but it did explain why Cerus, who was only fourteen years old and a first-year freshman, could have such a high level of magic engineering skills, so she didn't continue to ask.
"Anyway, have you had enough of it, Shanoff!"
"I didn't hold enough~ Cheruth is soft and comfortable~"
"Nope. The really soft part is the pillow on the back of my head, okay. γ
Cheruth, who had already been hugged by Charnov from behind, wanted to complain like this, but considering that there were three boys behind her, she still couldn't help but say it.
Elena looked at Charnove, who looked strangely as if she was about to stick to Cheruth, and spoke.
"Shanoff, why are you suddenly so close to Cheruth?"
The blonde girl smiled softly when she heard this.
"Because Cheruth-chan is very much like my sister~"
"Getajielis-senpai?"
At the previous dinner, Elena had spent most of her time with the Charnove sisters, so she knew the fifth-grade sister who was even more talented than Princess Sekaria...... Truth be told, Elena had never seen such strange sisters. The younger sister looks like a gentle lady, but the elder sister looks like a willful little girl in both appearance and personality, and the two of them stand together, in the eyes of uninformed people, they will 100% turn the identities of the sisters upside down, but the relationship between the sisters is very good. One is a sister-controlled sister who plays the role of an actual sister, and the other is a sister-controlled sister who plays the role of an actual older sister.
But Shanoff said that it was true. The seniors of Cheruth and Getajielis, both in terms of their great talent and appearance, look younger than their actual age...... It's all very similar.
Just as Elena was thinking this, suddenly a beautiful voice came from the corridor in front of her, which was very angry and deplorable.
"Let go of someone's sister!"
A silver flash lit up in front of everyone's eyes, and before the six people here could react, a smaller blonde girl appeared out of thin air in front of the group, to be precise, in the originally empty place in front of Shanoff and Cheruth.
"Wow...... Eh, Sister Lis~"
Startled, Charnov seemed to see the person clearly. Immediately returned to the original appearance without tension.
However, the blonde girl, who was called her sister by Shanoff, did not seem to hear her sister greet her, but angrily pointed to Cheruth who was being held in her arms by Shanoff.
"Hurry up and let go of my sister!"
..................
"No matter how you look here, it should be your sister, hurry up and let me go, okay!"
"You thief cat!"
"No, no, no, no, so how did you come to this conclusion, and from any point of view, I was forced, okay......"
In other words, as a wolf orc, it is really delicate to be said to be a cat......
"Allah, that's really pitiful, Cheruth ~ sauce ~ It seems that as long as you are persecuted, who can accept it?"
Just as Cherus and the blonde girl, who was suspected to be Charnoph's sister Gettajelis, glared at each other nondetently, suddenly a voice familiar to her sounded. And the content of the words couldn't help but make her tremble inexplicably.
Thanks to the presence of Getajielis, Charnov did not pester Cheruth this time, and the wolf girl quickly broke free from Charnove's arms and looked at the members of the race between Sekaria and Lloris who were coming from the other side of the corridor.
"Li...... Sister Sekaria......"
"Hello senior!"
At this time, the people of Langton also realized that Sekaria and their team should be preparing to play, and seeing these seniors who can be called the pride of Lorris National College, the members of the freshman team all showed longing expressions.
Sekaria glanced at Cheruth with a smile, then turned to Langton and the others.
"I heard when I walked out of the common room that the first Water Elemental Freshman Tournament was won by our Lorris Academy. β
Langton stepped forward as the representative of the freshman team, and the captain of the good old man seemed to try to be more calm in front of Sekaria and Xia Li behind her, but it was still difficult to hide the excitement in his tone when he spoke.
"It is our honor to be able to bring glory to the college...... Thanks to Cherus, she led us to victory. β
"Thank you for your hard work, the academy is proud of you," Sekaria nodded to everyone on the freshman team, and then looked at Cheruth and added, "Although we don't know much about the specific situation in the previous game, but since the captain Langton said so, I think Cheruth must have performed well in the game, huh...... Please look forward to it, the student union will definitely commend and reward β Cheruth's excellent performance~"
So Cheruth received five pairs of envious glances from her teammates.
...... But can she choose not to? (To be continued.) )
